Language in Time and Context – University of Copenhagen

Hop til / Skip to:

As a research group we study processes of communication in time and context. Language is produced by particular persons at particular moments in history and is shaped by situations and circumstances. We are concerned with spoken and written language (modern as well as older Danish), with language among children and adults, and with language produced by social minorities/majorities. We do not only focus on verbal language. We integrate drawings, pictures, layout, voice qualities, gestures and performances whenever such materials and actions seem to help the participants organize their processes of communication.
